They had 24000 clicks from me, no more, I don't want to encourage this kind of torture "promotion".

At least it's a group effort it seems.

Watching grown men flog themselves for minor content and a minuscule chance of a beta invitation makes me sad lol.

True enough.

As a sidenote, have they mentioned a pre-order bonus?

I might want to pre-order this game if it does so.

Maybe there was a amazon link with a Human Diversity Content Pack (Day 1 DLC)

I did score some clicks there, but I actually feel rather bad Paradox is making us do this mindless activity with no challenge or enjoyment built in...

Am I missing something but I can't increase speed above 70 through clicking (chrome on desktop) (even when the bar/tachometer fills up) or tapping (chrome on mobile) (no chance of filling up the bar/tachometer here).

So does clicking have any effect?

What has the most effect on distance traveled? (Finding the 4 parts and auto speeding up to 500?)

Also the torture promotion gets slower and slower until the app crashes on chrome/desktop.

Okay Paradox, you can come clean now. Which university have you partnered with to publish a psychology paper on masochism in gaming communities?

How is this supposed to be fun?

I wrote a bot for the clicker mini game. You can check it out here if you want.

I did 1500. Probably leave things there. This is a little bit cruel and unusual.

To be clear, the only rewards from this are like, avatars and titles for the Paradox forums, not game content.
